[@Schatten.mensch]

I would have liked to see a more detailed noise leakage test for this type of earbuds - for example sitting next to each other with the distance you'd see on a bus. Also a comparison with the Sony LinkBuds would have been useful since they featured on this show before and have a similar concept at a similar pricepoint.

[@acheyawachtel9409]

I’d have liked them to go into it but I can say from using them that it’s a very tinny sound can be heard in a very quiet place with a volume all the way up It’s extremely dependent on the noise environment since your brain is still taking in sounds through your ear holes

[@V3ritas1989]

it is fine. I often take them off when someone sits down next to me in public transport to see if it is too loud. If it is not full power you cannot hear anything. The other way around is usually fine. You can hear other stuff around going on around you. Though that also means that when the subway kreeks again or breaks you cannot hear the sound anymore

[@xszl]

its all advertising, not a real test

[@yensteel]

A written review a while ago said there's definitely more sound leakage than the bone conduction ones. This is something to definitely be concerned about.

[@elirantuil5003]

Valid criticism in short circuit comment section?! Preposterous!

[@raynlaze1339]

1. How do they fit while wearing glasses? 2. Does it have a mic u can talk through, what's the quality?

[@rob2257]

I’ve had Galaxy Buds Live for years and I wear glasses, they’re non sealed in ear buds. Battery is around 5 hours, case fits in a jeans watch pocket, and I’ve literally had conversations while vacuuming and people don’t know and can hear me fine, better than my iPhone’s built in mic. I keep the touch controls turned off because if you’re working out or moving a lot they will move some, but I sleep with them in so they stay in okay. ANC is pretty good for non sealed buds. App is the same for iOS and Android. Putting them in is weird at first but you’ll get used to it. I can heartily recommend the Live Buds.

[@Rossatron6]

I wear a different pair of shokz daily. It doesn’t bother me with my glasses at all. I also wear them under my headphones that I wear at work.

[@raynlaze1339]

@@Rossatron6 are they also like these, on/over ear?

[@martijnvdven]

I daily drive an older model of the OpenRun (from before their rebrand, AfterShokz Aeropex) and those hook over the ears as well. They go on over my glasses and I have never noticed any issues there.

[@blasiankxng]

I'm guessing since this is sponsored and they didn't showcase the mic quality, it must be trash. they said the battery life while on the phone decreases but nothing about the quality

[@tylmomendog]

PSA: If you loose or damage your charging case the earbuds are effectively bricked, they don't offer replacements. Apparently when asked about this they offered a 20% discount to buy a new set. Would not recommend

[@sameermohideen4913]

This needs to be higher up

[@frf5000]

What if you lie about losing the case and just get it for 20% cheaper?

[@sevenofzach]

Commenting as this seems important.

[@Patichu]

So like any Bluetooth wireless earbuds.

[@tylmomendog]

@@Patichu I'm sure other earbuds are the same, but brands like Bose do offer replacements as far as I can tell. I wouldn't recommend any brand where the charging case can't be replaced.

[@JNexTV]

I bought these. Sound was absolutely horrid, even worse than you’d expect. They were returned in not even two days.

[@sirzulfadhli]

Thank u for being honest

[@shyamkrishnansuresh7283]

I agree. Not for people who value sound quality

[@vookie91]

Yep. I have the more expensive non air version. Good for podcast, but a rattle and distortion monster for any music with any level of bass

[@kellymoses8566]

openrun pros are pretty good.

[@sevenofzach]

@jnextv what headphones with the same outside of your ear form factor are better for the same price? Inside my ear ones get uncomfortable fast unfortunately

[@CopyrightNoG]

Bought these myself and I’m a bit surprised. I didn’t really expect there to be any body with these but even in standard they’re good. Of course they’re not audiophile grade, far from it, that’s the trade off with these tho. Most earbuds depend on the seal for good bass due to the tiny drivers, but these are not bad for an open air type buds.

[@rocker2344]

It be nice to know the Bluetooth codecs it supports (SBC, aptx, lc3) I have been looking for low latency bone conduction headphones

[@Andreasytac]

AAC and SBC, no AptX, and certainly no AptX LL

[@axmoylotl]

as far as i'm aware, nothing like that exists. There are very very few low latency bluetooth buds, and i've never found any low latency bone conduction ones.

[@stranger242]

@@axmoylotl these aren't bone conducting headphones

[@NaoKeysVT]

Glad to see Shokz has made a cheaper version to their normal OpenFit. I have weird sensory things where if I can't hear my surrounds my brain kinda freaks out. Currently using Galaxy Buds Live but the battery on those has degraded a lot. Tried the Oladance OWS2 and Pro and those were ok, but the amp noise was nuts. Looking forward to trying these.

[@ThatGenericCanadian]

I tried the Oladance as well and couldn't deal with the amp buzz. My favourite open earbuds in terms of sound quality are the Sony Linkbuds, but they kept breaking on me, I had to RMA them 3 times in the year I had them (I tread my gear pretty nicely, I still have Sennheiser over head headphones from 2010ish that I haven't broke) and now that warranty was up I couldn't justify spending another $250CAD on something that I expect to break again. I've landed on the Shokz OpenFit, they're super comfy, sound better than the Oladance and have great battery life. Definitely recommend Shokz!

[@noredine]

I used to go through a lot of Koss KSC75, because they're non intrusive, and don't clamp on your head like headphones. I'm happy to see alternatives.

[@castform57]

I have the openrun pro ones, and I love them. Really the only downside for me is that you can't lean your head on anything because of the wire behind your head.

[@rozczochR]

There is a mini version which has smaller wire and after some getting used to to correct placement You can forget you have them on your head. Laying down, car seats, bean bags whatever You don't feel it. I have proper over ear headphones and those are more problematic than my shokz

[@antondeleon8515]

I have the none air version and i wear them for 8+ hours a day. Listening to audiobooks, taking teams calls, or jamming out to music. I would recommend for anyone in an office situation and out in public where you need to be aware of the sounds around you. I love shokz and have been using their products for years.

[@franx4168]

i bought the openrun pro for work and it's amazing. i get like 10-11 hours of battery life

[@thomas_trandal]

Do you use them for music or only talking (podcast, audiobooks)? Considering picking them up, but would mainly use for music.

[@Bosco-nq2kk]

​@@thomas_trandal I'm a cyclist. I use them for music when I ride on roads/trails. Even on roads and about 50% volume I can hear vehicles approaching. When I ride with others I can carry on a conversation easy and still hear music. I have owned two pairs, the first ones had the strap break due to my negligence. I use them all the time.

[@Skreamies]

Genuinely what is the sound like? Been looking for a while for running so I can hear cars haha

[@pranamd1]

​@@thomas_trandalSound on OpenRun Pro is surprisingly good for having no seal in your ears. Not fantastic, little bit hollow-sounding, but all instruments in most songs can be distinguished clearly, including low frequencies. Keep your expectations measured, though; you can get WAY better sounding headphones for half the price. You aren't getting these because they sound excellent; you're getting them because they sound pretty good while still allowing you to hear your environment.

[@linyongzheng]

@@thomas_trandal Mostly podcasts for me & conference calls. Will listen to music when running. I'm no audiophile so pardon if I am not using the proper lingo: sound stage is lacking so not best to enjoy music. It is like background music in a grocery store. Definitely challenging to hear the sounds if in a noisy area.

[@tenkaminari]

I got a non-Air version for a while, super satisfied with it. I sweat easily so over-ear-type headphone is not suitable for me during summer, and I hate silicon tips that goes into ear canal, so this is along with their bone conduction type were suitable for me.

[@Wolsk]

I bought a pair of Soundcore V30i's-which are also open-ear earbuds-a couple weeks ago for around $45, and they've been extremely good for the price! I can definitely recommend buying this style of earbud at least, but if you wanna save a good bit of money over the Shokz, I'd suggest taking a look at the V30i's

[@paulbaker9687]

My question is (and nobody seems to do this in their reviews) , how to they work / feel when you have to wear glasses ?

[@xSKOOBSx]

I love my aftershokz, I literally use them every day. Theyre like using headphones but without wearing headphones. And if you want sound quality close to earbuds or need to block out noise, you can put earplugs in. one of my favorite products that has come out in probably the last ten years.

[@rossk6597]

I'm glad you're getting to shokz. I have the openrun pro and I love them. 2nd ones i've bought(1st one was openmove a few years ago)

[@lightningwingdragon973]

Glad to know LT Labs is doing battery testing. Both the Soundcore Liberty 2 &3 I got, based on LTT recommendations had battery lives 1-2 hours less than advertised.

[@SmugHomura]

Bought these immediately after watching this short. I was looking for good over-ears since they're so rare and I hadn't seen Shokz's OpenFit earbuds yet. Got them in today and after having used them for about half a day now I'm pleasantly surprised with how good these sound! I have really sensitive ears so I do feel a bit of pressure on the part where the speaker rests on the ear but honestly I'm just glad I can finally use earbuds because all in-ears were just too painful.

[@Chrish1981]

Nothing at all... Nothing at all... Nothing at all 😂😂😂😂

[@vandalistica]

Here for this comment

[@MatthiasSchindler]

heyho, germany here. thanks for the video. for 2 years I have been dealing with like chronic mild ear pain due to having to wear my headset for at least 8h in my home office and then using it to play some games afterwards. This sounds like it is solving all my "on ear" problems I am feeling. amazon does ship them tomorrow already. I will report back. I feel somewhat hyped... hope they dont disappoint. they even had a like business version like a full headset. I bought that too.

[@imerebus]

I used the openfit non air and i can adjust the eq more than the presets that you have on air. Got it to match closely to the aeropex since I used to use them for years but they have a flaw where the headband breaks after like 2 years of constant use

[@ranyar_]

I own some openfit shokz (the ones before these) and they are fantastic, allows me to go to the gym+run without risking them falling out and I can hear traffic and the outside too, dont need to take them out if I need to speak to someone too. My ears get bothered by earbuds too so thats a bonus

[@Rob_Morrison_GB]

So you're saying that Ned Flanders would like these??

[@DrewRutter]

I’ve had the open run pro for a few years and absolutely love them. Shokz has one of the best and easiest to use warranty’s around. They replaced a pair, even though it was obvious user error. That being said I bought the Openfit and hated them. They never fell off, but never felt secure either. My battery life was about 4 hours on them. Switched back to my old Openrun Pro and still love them.

[@dIggl3r]

Stupid question, but can these be used with a computer? (bluetooth after all?)

[@juliachireno9409]

Just got myself a pair and love them. I listen to a lot of audiobooks and podcasts and these sound great for that. I can still hear my kids but not so much that I can’t continue listening to I wear glasses and have no comfort issue. (I’m very picky about my ears. )

[@toddb2377]

After about 5 years of absolutely abusing my old basic bone conduction Shokz they finally lost the ability to hold charge and I bought a pair of these on sale. They aren’t perfect but they’re great for listening to audiobooks and whatnot. He’s not lying, they are really light and I often forget they’re on. That being said, as others have mentioned you are SOL if you lose the case.

[@russellj911]

I like the bone conduction listening devices they make cause you can put ear plugs in and hear your content great while in a very loud environment

[@Bastispark]

could you cover their bone conduction headphones. I would be more interested in that, because I'm working in a super noisy environment

[@anarchangel7]

I have bought two pairs. I love them and have showed them to lots of friends/coworkers. Almost everyone loves them. The one thing is depending on how loud you like your music they can be a bit ticklish as they vibrate at higher volumes. They work great for noisy areas and if you still need to hear your environment.

[@anarchangel7]

Should add hair is a consideration. They need to rest against your head as much as possible to work. If you have a ton/unruly hair near your ears may be hard to get situated. Most people are ok though.

[@MyrddinE]

I gotta say, my favorite wired headphones (going back a decade ago) were open air ones shaped very similarly to these. But I could never find wireless ones in that form factor. I'm actually quite interested in these, and they're priced well. Happy to have watched this.

[@thoriphes2007]

Would have been good to include if both work independently; if it was mentioned I guess it went over my head. Also, do they support simultaneous connections?

[@killarafael7744]

Def useful if you still like to hear your surroundings and don't like to be completely cancelled out for noise. If you want an actual earbud I think Airpods Pro 2 have the best Active Listening (terms of sounding close to normal w/o earbud). I have these Shokz and at 50% volume perfect sound, I can hear surroundings and music just fine. Snares could leak but honestly with ambient noises around no one should hear it unless its super quiet. Pushing 70% or using that treble boost does increase audio leakage, this is where you probably shouldn't go if the room you are in is super quiet.

[@Tanner_Teves]

Hmmm I may pick these up. My ear holes are super tiny and I have never been able to wear ear buds comfortably. But I hate wearing over-ear style in the gym.

[@ThatGenericCanadian]

I've got a different pair of Shokz that fit the same way as these (OpenFit, like these they loop around your ear) and I love them. I hate the plug feeling of IEMs/normal earbuds, but I don't always want to wear over ear headphones. The Shokz are great, sound half decent, great battery life, I regularly forget I'm wearing them they're so comfy, and I love that I can wear them at work, at the gym, while walking my dog, and still keep an ear out for things around me.

[@starlightkristal9856]

as someone who can't find a single ear plug size that would fit this sounds nice

[@EzCh33zy]

Thanks for the video. Can we get an update on the Dual Noise-Canceling Mic pretty please? Would want to see if this a good option to use for work calls (both Teams and Phone).

[@DerekTrowbridge]

Do they work with very small speakers or vibrations?

[@cjvs.1991]

Very small speakers

[@leonk6950]

Small speakers ARE vibrations, bone conduction headphones are also basically just speakers in a different package

[@Sassquatch0]

3:05 I say the same thing about the Galaxy Buds Live (the "Beans") which don't sound-isolate. Bought them specifically for this reason. (and I hate earbuds with the rubber tips)

[@tara387]

I know this is sponsored but that frequency response graph doesn't lie there's literally no bass presence in these. Don't think these would be good for much beside podcasts

[@Jtw0912]

None of these type of earbuds do, but that's not what they're meant for

[@blasiankxng]

just get a butt plug with bluetooth sync and you'll have all the base you need

[@ColdFinland]

Guys, you have such a big production nowadays, have you thought about making royalty free tracks that you would test in every video and just share those same tracks under the video where you test the sound on audio devices, so that we could do the same tests for ourselves using same tracks?

[@sbrideau2000]

Can confirm for their products being comfy for hours, my Aftershokz Aeropex (computer still says aftershokz and not shokz when I connect them), I can have them for hours but after just 3 years the battery only last 1 to 2 hours.

[@mathewf.7523]

I considered buying these but I noticed something glaring. Those only have 7 hours of battery life per charge. But a single shift at my job can end up at 8 - 12 hours.

[@Spyryt85]

love the Simpsons reference! 2:06 😂

[@dashvash5440]

I'm a big fan of over the ear in this style. I use the ones that have the rubber plugs but I can pull them out to hear sold me and can jam uhm in if I want decent noise canceling. Kinda best of both worlds (the noise pass through is decent, and you can even just move the bud outside the ear canal) Great for podcasts and for general use. Prob bad for jogging and whipping my head side to side when allowing noise in they would for sure fall off.

[@FNA46]

Shick, Shack, Shokz.

[@piddy953]

I have the Bose quiet comfort 2 ear buds. These look like they solve alot of the issues I am having after owning mine for about a year and a half. If the case is not slippery then I am going for these next.

[@Carahan]

The hook around the ear formfactor earbuds used to be more popular. My JBL Endurance II's have those earhooks. They're not the best audio, but decent and no stability or comfort issues.

[@Konuvis]

I used to have some Jabra that were on-ear with an extendable mic. Love those and can never find a similar design these days.

[@BarbecueBacon]

"Names" is kind of a funny nickname for a guy named James. From now on I will call you Names just like you asked :)

[@aeonspast]

I love this idea for headphones. No matter the size or type of earbud I have never found one that fits my ear and didn't either hurt or slide out shortly after using it. My wife got me some weird "Lenovo x15 Pro" headphones that sit just like this and I freaking love them. Obviously the audio quality isn't amazing, but as someone who could never wear buds, I'll take ANYTHING at this point. We can go on walks and still talk while I have music playing, or I can go for a run and not have to worry about not hearing a car behind me. Don't know that I'd spend $120 for a pair, given the ones we found were like $20, but I hope to see more types and innovation in this space.

[@-B.H.]

Knowing the other Shokz products these are likely gonna be pretty solid. I've got two pair of the connected versions of these that go behind the head. Though for the safety side you need to be careful to not turn up the audio so loud that you drown out all sounds. At that points it kinda defeats the purpose of not having in-ear headphones.

[@Zer0_Smith]

I have the old version and theyre great, however with phone calls battery only lasts 4-5 hours

[@privacyvalued4134]

"Feels like I'm wearing nothing at all..." In such cases, you should make sure you are wearing pants. And underwear. Just to confirm that you are awake and not dreaming about wearing nothing at all.

[@12danny21]

Does anyone know how the volume on these compared to the Openrun Non Pro version? I have the non pro version and at max volume it is quite low listening to music/podcast

[@samwise8731]

Did they fix/add easy auto connect to another device? ie. I have two of their products. Each of them has been paired with many of my devices but the most annoying thing about them is you need to disconnect with previous device before connecting with the next one (even if they're all already paired). You can't just initiate the connect from the next device. This is super annoying for a $200 product. My old earbuds from Samsung has easy connect and I can just connect with my laptop without having to go disconnect it first from my phone which could be in the next room or elsewhere in the house. If a $100 product can do this, they have no reason not to add this feature (if they haven't). Also, it's hard to hear someone talking to you if you have these open ear bone conduction headphones if you're listening to something. So it's not really "you can hear others". It's a mixed bag.

[@draven999]

Very intriguing as a replacement for my Airpod Pro 2s but the lackluster touch and volume controls kinda put me off, unfortunately.

My buddy has a different version from that brand and really loves them. I want to buy a pair, we both walk outside for work all day and these are lifesavers. I think they're better than the Sony donuts

[@pringals]

Save a $100 and get the Soundcore by Anker V30i instead. I bought mine earlier this year and use them daily at work. I absolutely love the open air sytle for the office. I can still hear what's going on around the room, yet still have my podcast or music on that doesn't disturb anyone near me. I also love the battery life (not sure on extended time, but I get a full 8-10hr work day on them) and the bluetooth range is great too. I can walk away about 30-40 yards away from my phone with them and not lose connectivity. I've found most of these are all based on similar technologies, so even though mine are a different brand, I bet the results are similar.

[@todaysingredientis]

Someone spoonfeed me. What song was playing in the background?

[@Louis_Varga]

I bought the Shokz OpenFit earlier this year. They were on sale for $150. Since the OpenFit Air is only $120, I'm guessing it's a lower end version of what I have. I hope we see more of these open ear designs because I don't like earbuds in my ears. It's this or the big over ear headphones for me.

[@SarkkiKarkki]

Ordered these yesterday so this is a fun preview for what I'm about to get in mail.

[@SarkkiKarkki]

I'm quite impressed after an admittedly short amount of time used but very comfortable so much so that I reached for them a couple times forgetting that I already had them on and the audio quality was also better than I expected. Obviously it does lose some of it because it's not sealed but I thought it would have been a more significant reduction in quality. The controls are a mixed bag, it's probably for the best that they are only hold or double tap to avoid accidental commands but buttons would be even better. Also any possible connectivity and battery issues won't be known until I've used them longterm. Initially though, I'm happy with the purchase.

[@MultiAmmar2000]

These are surprisingly great Also fantastic for people who's ear canal gets bothered from the earbuds, and doesn't want the huge annoying headphones.

[@ShadowTaiga]

I have shokz S810. There biggest design flaw is you cant change the ring tone volume... It is absolutely terrible.

[@zodiacfml]

open air is underrated. it is better than everything except bass. Comfort is all-day wearing vs in-ear or headphones. battery life much better than TWS. Can't easily lose these open airs. outdoor (even indoor use if you babysit take care children) use is topnotch because you can hear the environment clearly.

[@RogueShadowTCN]

I wonder how they compare to the sony linkbuds

[@bbqR0ADK1LL]

I could do with some earphones that won't keep slipping out of my sweaty ears, but blocking out the terrible gym music is kind of a big part of what makes listening to my own music possible.

[@JoseAlba87]

[@piripiro]

You need to have a use case for them. They sound worse than headphones, or earbuds. But if you want something that won't fall off from your ears, something that allows you to still be aware of your surroundings (E.g. Riding a bicycle) they are awesome

Instead, they only occasionally do tests with music tracks of construction or busy store playing from the speakers, something that does not give an accurate example of how the microphone quality sounds...
